When you say I have to accept “the Nicene Creed” to be Christian, could you be more specific? Do you mean the creed produced in A.D. 325 at a council convened by the Roman emperor Constantine, who was trying to settle the Arian controversy and preserve unity in his empire? Or do you mean the version most Christians actually recite today, which comes from A.D. 381, when another Roman emperor, Theodosius I, convened the First Council of Constantinople to settle further disputes and more fully define the doctrine of the Holy Spirit? Because that seems like a pretty important distinction. One was created under Constantine, a Roman emperor with no priesthood authority, whose interest in Christianity was inseparable from his interest in imperial stability. The other was expanded under Theodosius, another Roman emperor who used state power to enforce religious uniformity. And somehow I’m supposed to believe that my faith in Jesus Christ is invalid unless I accept the theological conclusions of emperor-sponsored councils held centuries after Christ and His apostles? You are free to trust those councils, led by rulers of the same empire that crucified Christ. But please stop pretending that your post-biblical, politically entangled, imperial committee language is simply “biblical truth.” And stop acting like you have the authority to decide who is and is not Christian based on a person’s willingness to pledge allegiance to Rome’s preferred definition of the Divine.

Mike Lee uniting Christendom because he got pissy about a spread sheet and opening the door for people to ask why Mormons are very specific and evasive with their words about Christology Groyper.

I really dislike all the attacks on my Mormon friends on here. Mormons are some of the most Christlike people you will ever meet. They operate in charity and self sacrifice. And you know what? They put family at the core of their lives. They love children and view them as blessings from God. I know a lot of Christians who have terrible views on children and family. America has a lot of problems and I think the last possible problem is the Mormon community. I obviously disagree with their theology or else I would be Mormon. But give me a break about heresy and doctrine when there are over 40,000 different interpretations of Christianity since the Protestant reformation.

If only we, as Latter-day Saints, belonged to a church that had “Jesus Christ” in its name and His image in its logo … Oh wait

Boomers are perpetually insecure that they’ve never had a “great trial” so they punish the world for it. I’ve long theorized that the reason why they say “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” so much is because it’s what their parents said to them. And how does a boomer respond when their ww2 bomber pilot father who had to scrape food together in the depression tells you “your generation has it easy?”

Watching footage from WW2 makes me realize how brave this generation was and how pathetic the current one is.
